General Submissions:

Midway Journal accepts submissions of aesthetically ambitious work that invokes the colliding and converging energies of the fairgrounds. Midway Journal seeks to publish a variety of styles and diverse voices. We especially welcome marginalized voices and authors from underrepresented communities to submit. We strongly encourage writers to read a few issues of the journal before submitting.

We accept submissions between January 1 and May 31 annually only. Work received outside of this time period will not be read.

NOTE: We select the subsequent year’s publishing material from each submissions period. The publication schedule is devised after the close of the submissions period (June) and before the start of the new publication year beginning in January.
